Preface
The advantages of DIY plumbing
Having the wherewithal to tackle your own plumbing installations and repairs can save you the cost of hiring professionals - and that can amount to a substantial sum of money It also avoids the distress and inconvenience of ruined decorations, and the expense of replacing rotted household timbers where a slow leak has gone undetected. Then there's the saving in water. A dripping tap wastes gallons of water a day- and if it's hot water, there's the additional expense of heating it. A little of your time and a few pence spent on a washer can save you pounds.
Water systems
Generally, domestic plumbing incorporates two systems. One is the supply of fresh water from the 'mains', and the other is the waste or drainage system that disposes of dirty water. Both of the systems can be installed in different ways (subopposite).
